That ’90s Show’s season 1 finale leaves plenty of loose ends untied for Leia and the gang as summer 1995 comes to an end in Point Place.
In terms of the main cast, Debra Jo Rupp and Kurtwood Smith will likely reprise their roles as Kitty and Red Forman, though other original That ’70s Show stars aren’t expected to return. Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher, who appeared as Jackie Burkhart and Michael Kelso in one episode of That ’90s Show season 1, won’t be back for season 2, though their son Jay is an integral part of the sequel show. Wilmer Valderrama appeared as Fez in three episodes, though he cast doubt on his return in future seasons, saying That ’90s Show is “really the kids’ show.”
Cast Member | Character |
Ashley Aufderheide | Gwen Runck |
Mace Coronel | Jay Kelso |
Reyn Doi | Ozzie |
Sam Morelos | Nikki |
Maxwell Acee Donovan | Nate Runck |
To Valderrama’s point, That ’90s Show centers on Leia and her new group of friends. In turn, season 2 should bring back Ashley Aufderheide as Gwen Runck, Mace Coronel as Jay Kelso, Reyn Doi as Ozzie, Sam Morelos as Nikki, and Maxwell Acee Donovan as Nate Runck. It is these teenage characters who make up the core of That ’90s Show‘s cast. Seth Green and other guest stars should only appear in limited roles to help That ’90s Show feel connected to the original series.
